4.2 Typical Constant Voltage Operation
1. Before connecting the device to be powered to the power supply, determine
the maximum safe load current for the device to be powered and set the
current limit value (see Setting Current Limit procedure in this section).
2. The output voltage can be set using the voltage coarse knob (with a 1 V
resolution) and voltage fine knob (with a 10 mV resolution). After the last
adjustment you must wait 3 seconds until the state is saved.
3. Turn off power supply and connect it to the device to be powered (see
Instrument Hook-Up procedure in this section).
4. Turn on the power switch. The CV indicator should light.
5. Increase the voltage setting until the voltage LED display reads the desired
value. The fine control permits easier setting to a specific value.
6. Note the load current on the current LED display.
7. If the load current exceeds the preset current limit, the CV indicator will go
off and the CC indicator will light. In this case, the power supply
automatically switches to the constant current mode, and further rotation of
the voltage control will not increase the output voltage.
